Agree and well said! Two thumbs up!
Does Great World Mrt underpass basement 2 to Great World City.
What a weird name for an MRT station. Should be called River Valley MRT instead. Same for Beauty World and Mayflower and Springleaf.
Disagree. Great World bears a lot of meaning, especially for the elderly who reminisce the good old days of ‘Da Shi Jie’, which was one of the ‘worlds’ amongst the three major ‘worlds’ – Great World, Gay World, New World.
Quickly to open. Go to great world city worst long time and difficult. Open at next month
